Awakened Spirit

My friend and psychic teacher Robin will be teaching another series of psychic awareness classes this coming fall and spring. Here is the info from Robin:

AWAKENED SPIRIT
A psychic awareness & channeling development class

Wednesdays beginning September 21
Level 1: September - December 2005
Level 2: January - April 2006

WHAT IS CHANNELING? Channeling is communicating with spirit. There is a sacred conversation happening between you & Spirit every moment of every day yet your ears are not trained to hear it. Channeling is the ability to hear & directly participate in this conversation with Spirit. In this class you will refine your awareness & open to receive increasingly subtle expressions of Spirit.

CAN ANYONE DO THIS? Yes. Through doing this work I have seen that everyone has the ability to channel for everyone has the ability to listen deeply & be in alignment with their spirit. If you genuinely want to hear what your spirit, body, & guides are saying to you, then you have everything that is needed to successfully open yourself to this path.

HOW WILL OPENING MY PSYCHIC ABILITIES & LEARNING TO CHANNEL BENEFIT ME? The more deeply we connect with ourselves, the more deeply we connect with others,
including Spirit. Strengthening the clarity & wholeness of your relationship with your spirit allows you to create & live from a place of your unique truth. As you deepen your trust & understanding of yourself, you will naturally open to divine guidance for these processes are one & the same. Having a personal relationship with Spirit will open you to receive the profoundly transformational level of support, guidance, & love that is always available to you. Opening your psychic abilities will empower you, allow you to live in greater clarity, assist you in creating the life you truly want to lead & deepen your relationship with love, trust, faith, commitment, willingness, allowing, receptivity, & surrendering.

WHAT'S REQUIRED TO TAKE THIS CLASS?
*A genuine desire to open to & have a direct relationship with Spirit.
*A sincere readiness to transform yourself & your life.
*Willingness & commitment to yourself, to the process, & to Spirit.
*Ability to take on & commit to a daily meditation practice & complete weekly assignments that may take between 1-2 hours.
*A life that is spacious enough to allow integration of all that will come to you.

WHAT SHOULD I CONSIDER BEFORE TAKING THIS CLASS?
Embarking upon this path will transform every aspect of your life & you must be prepared to have your eyes opened to unseen aspects of yourself, your life, others, & life in general. This process is similar to waking up in the morning. When you first wake your eyes are sleepy & your room & surroundings are vague & dreamy looking. You can't tell if it's sunny or cloudy outside - you only know that it's brighter than it was when you were sleeping just a few moments ago.
Once you wake up a bit more & open your eyes you can clearly see the vivid details of your room & the weather outside. Everything seems to transform in those sweet moments of awakening but the only thing that has really changed is your ability to see what was already there. Opening your psychic abilities is just the same & in committing to this process, you must be prepared to view your life in increased clarity & be willing to take personal responsibility for what you see.
As you can imagine, this work is both empowering, transformational, & spiritually activating while also emotionally demanding, soul searching &, at times, discombobulating. You will get to know aspects of yourself that you may find challenging & you will be asked to courageously walk through your fears & resistances. Areas of disempowerment & things you've consciously or unconsciously agreed to accept as blind spots will likely come to the forefront of your awareness & require your loving attention. Embarking on this work is like sending out a call to life that you are consciously stepping onto your life path & that you earnestly want to begin living your life as who you are on a spirit level. Life will increase its support of you to achieve this goal & you will be asked to accept responsibility for your choice to mature & live in greater awareness & power. If you are ready to spiritually empower yourself, activate your direct connection to Spirit, & live your life as the divine being you are, then this class is for you.

CLASS FORMAT
This class is taught in 3 levels. Level 1 lays the inner foundation & plants the seed needed to open more deeply to Spirit. Level 2 develops & refines your abilities & allows you learn how to receive, interpret, & share the divine guidance that is available to you through channeling for yourself & others. Level 3 is an ongoing class that serves as a practicum for students who have completed levels 1 & 2. Each week we will tie together meditation, group process, & experiential work in a safe, nurturing space that allows you to refine your gifts while connecting with other like-minded people who are committed to opening to Spirit.

Level One: September 21 - December 21
Topics covered: Meditation, grounding, boundaries, energetic awareness & clearing, connecting with your inner voice, listening to & trusting your body & imagination, working with fears, self care, developing intuitive confidence, willingness & courage to follow guidance, asking for help, & chakras.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Following the death of a close friend in 2000, I began having many opening experiences that led me to pursue my ability to channel. During that time I completed 2.5 semesters at the California Institute of Integral Studies studying to be a psychotherapist but withdrew when it became clear that my path was that of a medium & artist. I have offered this class 6 times & have been genuinely amazed & inspired by the profound openings I have witnessed during these classes as they have come with greater ease & speed than I ever could have imagined. I am grateful for the opportunity to be immersed in this work & hope to share it with you.

Traveling Psychic - Seattle and Portland

I will be offering psychic readings for $35 an hour in Seattle and Portland next week. Let me know if you're in the area and are interested in a reading.

Seattle: Monday - Wednesday, August 29-31
Portland: Thursday - Friday, Sept. 1-2

Secret Garden SF

This is over two months away but: I am going to have a display table of my psychic art at Secret Garden SF in November.

From the artists page:

Just before New Year's a voice told Vera that to "be creative" was the solution to all her troubles. Determined to uncover her creative side, she expected to start sewing or making jewelry. Little did she know that she was going to become a psychic artist. Following the voice, she discovered her right brain along with her intuition and psychic sense. She is now a designer of reality and counsels others on doing the same.

I am planning a booth/table at Secret Garden where I offer intuitive readings and advice. I will post another reminder on this site when the event is closer. If you are in the Bay Area and are interested, come check it out! At Secret Garden SF my readings will be for donations only.

Ask Your Body What Color It Needs

I found this taped to a bus stop the other day. The next day it was gone. I am glad I was able to see it in its short life span.



Let's just ignore the hand-written parts. To me, this wasn't art anyway; this was a message.

The message resonated very strongly with me because

1) I love dots.
2) I love symmetrically arranged dots.
3) I love colors.
4) I would love to heal people with color.
5) I recently considered going to color therapy school but decided against it.
6) I like to fantasize about working at a psychic healing center where each room is painted a different color of the rainbow. I then imagine myself saying to my clients "Ask your body what color it needs today" and then choosing the room based on the response.

A new age

Blessed are the Humans who look for unseen things that are intuitive but not yet accepted into the reality of life. They will be rewarded with knowledge and wisdom, and will become the forerunners of the newest sciences on the planet.

From the Kryon Cards.

I'm so excited. I can't wait.

Attraction vs. promotion

Sometimes I hear or read a sentence that so poignantly describes something that has been loosely whirring around in my head, it makes the world hold still for a second.

Today I found a sentence like that on Sonia Choquette's website:

You will enter a life process of attraction instead of promotion.

One of the reasons I never thought I could be an entrepreneur or artist is that I didn't like the idea of having to promote myself. But if I naturally attract what I need, I won't have to. And if it's meant to be, I will attract what I need. If I ever find myself promoting myself in ways that I don't enjoy, I will remind myself to attract, not promote.

This reminds me of job interviews. If I ever felt that I had to overly promote myself, I usually didn't get the job. But if there was a natural match and attraction, I was able to just be myself and ended up getting the job. This was usually true for the jobs that I ended up enjoying the most.

Thank you, Sonia, for labeling it so perfectly, "attraction instead of promotion."

More about fears

I have been writing down my fears. Whenever I notice that an area of my life is surrounded by a lot of fears, I write them down, one by one.

And in the process I am noticing that if I write down my fears as negative statements, they become manifestation recipes. One of the rules of manifestation is that the universe doesn't understand "no" or "not." So if you tell the universe that you don't want to be fat, all the universe hears is the idea of being fat.

That's why I have been writing down my fears like this:
- I am afraid that I'm not going to be good enough.
- I am afraid that I won't be successful.
- I am afraid that I won't have enough money.

By doing that, I'm really sending the universe the messages that I want to be good enough, I want to be successful, and I want to have enough money.

So not only is this pointing out my fears, but it is also making it clearer to me what it is that I do want right now. Isn't there an old saying that fear is nothing but desire disguised? So true.

Somebody said this to me recently about fears (thanks, Jacqueline!):

Identify them, but don't identify with them.

And that's exactly what I'm doing by writing them down. I identify them as fears, thereby separating them from myself. They are just fears. They are not me. Once I have identified them as fears, they can no longer take over my entire being. I recognize them and can say "Oh yeah, I know you, you're just a fear." If I didn't identify them, I might mistake them for reality and identify with them.

And as I mentioned before, the fears can also become vehicles for manifestation if they are worded in the right way.
